Reborn in 1990: My Family Store Leads to the Future

It was only then that Tan Shulin belatedly realized what Lu Yuan was thinking.

Once you decorate this store and others see the effect, they will definitely follow suit. Then, you won't need to hire inexperienced people anymore.

Compared to those shops located far away, this is for people who feel they can make good money even without changing their style.

The merchants on the same street as Lu Yuan are even more pitiful. If they don't do it, they're afraid they won't be able to compete with him at all. But if they don't do it, someone else will.

Doing it would cost money, so it's like being stuck in a vicious cycle.

It's not that it can't be done, but that there's simply no other choice.

"Xiao Lu, you're thinking way too far ahead! How could you think like that?"

"Just think things through more."

Lu Yuan didn't think that by thinking a little more, he was any better than Tan Shulin.

He felt that his greatest strength was perhaps knowing what he should do.

Tan Shulin looked around. He remembered Lu Yuan telling him that this store wasn't a government project. He paused for a moment before asking.

"Wait a minute, it's a long way. I remember you mentioned this to me a long time ago, saying that this is some kind of government project, and they might let me do the renovations?"

"Don't worry about anything, and don't overthink it, with me here."

Lu Yuan looked at the person in front of him and spoke earnestly.

"No matter what we plan to do next, let's focus on renovating the shop in front of us first."

"it is good."

Tan Shulin scratched his head awkwardly. He hadn't thought too much about it himself, but he always wanted to think things through more thoroughly.

But what I didn't expect was that doing it was actually more important.

Lu Yuan nodded, and instead of continuing the discussion, steered the conversation toward the renovation.

Regarding the decoration of the supermarket, Lu Yuan plans to try a supermarket style, as the store is quite large.

He spoke as he gestured the name on the blueprint.

"Here's what I'm thinking about the design here: we'll just leave the higher-ups alone and let them run the wiring and stuff. Anyway, the ceiling height here isn't low, so most people won't notice them. We can just hang some things up to cover them up a bit."

"I've also looked at the customer flow. It requires two doors in total, and it's best if customers can pass through most of the store. It would be great if they could buy something. The floor tiles won't work; I suggest we install floor tiles instead."

Lu Yuan originally wanted to create a supermarket-style space, but after sharing the idea, he felt it was a bit inappropriate.

Since this is a charming alleyway, he felt that his decoration should have a touch of Chinese style.

It can be considered a kind of imitation Chinese style. The original floor tiles and design style are definitely not good, so Lu Yuan thought it might be necessary to find someone to design it.

After hearing his words, Tan Shulin felt a little dizzy and could only write them down in his notebook.

"Xiao Yuan, the issue of the decorating style you mentioned is simple, but it would be best if you could tell me in advance what kind of decorating it should look like."

"Don't worry, I'll tell you everything."

Lu Yuan nodded in response.

Now that he doesn't need to worry about the other stores anymore, Lu Yuan has focused all his energy on this one.

His job is not just to instruct others on how to make things; he also needs to consider his own products.

Of course, we can continue to sell what we have now, but that's not enough. It would be best to add some unique items.

While Lu Yuan was discussing the next steps with Tan Shulin, Qi Qiang stood at the door and looked around.

Seeing Lu Yuan's air of pontificating, he found it a bit irritating and greeted him at the door.

"Isn't this Boss Lu? What are you doing? Now that you've taken over this shop, you'd better do business properly. It wouldn't be good if the business ran away halfway through."

"Weren't you going to find Boss Niu to invest? How come you have time to be here now?"

Lu Yuan approached the newcomer, initially unwilling to acknowledge him, but upon seeing Qi Qiang's appearance, he suddenly froze. After speaking to Tan Shulin, he began chatting with him.

If it were just a matter between the two of them, Lu Yuan wouldn't want to waste any more time talking to him. But since it involved Boss Niu, he was more interested in knowing what Boss Niu was thinking.

After he curiously recounted these things, Qi Qiang, who had been smiling, suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.

He really wanted to cooperate with Boss Niu, but Boss Niu seemed to have changed his mind. He had originally agreed to sponsor him directly, but for some reason, he said he wanted to think about it.

This left Qi Qiang helpless.

He can't just drag Boss Niu into doing things against his will.

"You seem quite concerned about Boss Niu's affairs?"

Qi Qiang was stunned for a moment, and after hearing what the person in front of him said, he subconsciously replied.

Before he could finish speaking, he froze, staring wide-eyed at Lu Yuan.

He looked somewhat flustered: "Hey, Mr. Lu, have you been in contact with Boss Niu? Is it because of you that he's not in a hurry to sign a contract with me?"

Judging from Qi Qiang's usually meticulous manner, the fact that he said such a thing clearly shows that he is genuinely anxious.

Although outsiders believe that Qi Qiang only got to where he is today because of his father's fame, he is still not satisfied even though his shop's business is doing quite well.

Qi Qiang himself was well aware of the prejudice others held against him, thinking he was a good-for-nothing son of an official.

However, he didn't care about these things. He wanted to show those who looked down on him his achievements.

He wanted to prove that he wasn't a good-for-nothing second-generation official, but that he had achieved what he had today through his own abilities.

Boss Niu was very important to him, as he was a way to prove his abilities, so he was very interested in hearing Lu Yuan say those words.

I couldn't sit still any longer.

He quickly looked at Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan looked at him calmly, quite the opposite of his anxious and flustered appearance, and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"What's yours will eventually come to you. Why look at me like that? I'm not so despicable as to do something like that."

"I believe what others say, but I don't believe you when you say it!"

Qi Qiang spat and pointed at Lu Yuan's nose.

Can't you even do something this despicable?

If you hadn't interfered, would I have fallen out with Li Huan?

Do you think I'm blind and can't see who Li Huan is on good terms with these days?

Or do you think I'm a fool who can't see that you and Li Huan have gotten closer, and you're trying to fool me in this way?

If I were to believe you again, I'd be a fool!
